Because Wookies(Lowbacca) and Barabels(Saba and Tesar Sebatyne) are naturally quite a bit stronger than humans. Bane is ' a mountain of muscle'. Kar Vastor is just a huge beast. Vader is a human of average build.
Even if its suited Vader, I cant see him weight-lifting more than anyone I mentioned without using the force(which is not part of the discussion).

He was about 6 feet tall, looks skinny(probably very lean). That seems about average to me. He isn't a musclebound monster is what im saying.
Maybe average isn't a great word since most people in my country are overweight. :/

Well when an author refers to a wookies strength, its always in a higher reguard than a humans. Wookie slaves are valued higher than human slaves for their strength. I think that was the case in RODV and the JA trilogy.

It looked to me like Chewbacca was putting more effort trying to choke Lando, than Vader did lifting a grown man high off his feet. Vader also killed a huge beast with his bare hand.

Wookies are known to rip limbs of of people in an instant, he didn't kill Lando because he was important to the movie. If something can rip the limbs off a human very quickly, you dont think they could just rip their head off?

Please don't use the arguement " Well so and so couldn't kill so and so, because he/she was important to the movie". Besides i never said Chewy was trying to kill Lando. I said it looked like he put more effort trying to choke him using two hands, while Vader used one to lift a grown man off his feet.
If Vader can kill a huge beast, which is probably ten times stronger than a human, with his bare hand, imagine what he can do to a human.
